I'm asking this on behalf of all those who don't come from a programming background. I often hear you don't need a CS degree to land a job as a developer. This isn't about me specifically, but anyone in a similar situation.
My background and a couple relevant links:
-28 years old with a Finance Degree from a non-Ivy league school
-Spent the last two years living overseas teaching English and learning to code
-Fairly well versed in html, css, javascript, and PHP
-Just getting started with Ruby

Would you hire me (or anyone with similar credentials) for a junior dev position?
Also, I wanted to make this a poll but my karma isn't high enough. A simple yes/no would be appreciated.
